In the "Search results" tab, if 2 files (in 2 distinct folders) are selected and if I want to open them using the context menu "Open", the fist one is correctly open but the second one cannot be open because the associated application try to find it the the folder of the first one instead of in the folder of the second one.
Example :
toto.doc in C:\toto
titi.doc in C:\titi
The search results tab (filter *.doc) shows at least toto.doc and titi.doc.
I select these 2 files.
Right click, "Open" context menu.
MS Word correctly opens toto.doc but I have a MS Word error : File not found (C:\toto\titi.doc)
Same problem with other context menu entries : Notepad++, PSPAD, Winmerge...

Please include the following information:

2) Your Windows Version (e.g., Win 11)
3) Your Screen Scaling Percentage (e.g., 125%).
We strongly recommend adding your Windows Version and Screen Scaling Percentage to the Location field in your Profile or to your Signature. That way, you only have to type them once, and we won't have to search for that vital information.

I know it has something to do with additional files being in other folders, but if it's something that XY is limited by OS or VB, I'm not sure.
This thread relates to a similar issue, I believe:

Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!

Yeah it's probably related, but here's what might be a little tip : I just noticed I usually do not have to face this problem, although I do open many files from SR at once, from different locations.
The thing is, if you open those files (by pressing Enter) using XY's own file associations (menu Tools|List Management|File Associations) then it all works fine!
